It sounds like it was time. I can think of nothing better as a parent when knowing I was dying, than having my incredibly thoughtful and caring child love me so much as to be there for me. Deb, what a gift you gave for all of you.

You've been through so much and you are clearly so strong. I hope you have time now to have some emotional breathing space and soon, time for you.

I am so sorry for your loss deb. This is hard for me as my elderly father is also gravely ill right now. Everyday is a wait

Please take extra care of yourself right now.

Deb, sending you lots of love and comforting wishes. I'm here if I can ever do anything--I mean that very sincerely. Your memories of sharing politics and New Yorker stories is really lovely. It is wonderful to be able to share that with a parent. Sending you love again.

I am very sorry to hear that. In my case I was most worried that my father would have a long, difficult death. We brought in Hospice. (He did not have cancer.) The end was quick and totally pain-free. After seeing what my mother endured, I cannot tell you how at peace I was to see this. Hopsice made a huge difference. They really knew what they were doing.

I send love and prayers your way.

Deb
